I don't believe different torrents share swarms

Worth clarifying that bittorrent v1 protocol doesn't support swarm merging, but some clients have such capabilities. Bittorrent v2 allows swarm merging, but it will take literally years for developers to adopt it IF they will want to. I have a little suspicion most torrent clients will continue to support v1 only

Hi! Thanks for your AMA! I'd like to ask you, is IPFS really private and/or anonymous? I've been following their Github for some time in past: back then they refused to implement private mode and Tor support. Does your IPFS implementation leak local network info to the swarm?
